Welding is one of the most common engineering joining processes in use today. Welding technology has evolved over the last decades from an empirical art to a process where weldability is well understood. This course will outline the current ‘state of the art’ and explain welding practices, precautions and rules in terms of metallurgical principles. The training includes practical afternoon sessions where welding techniques will be demonstrated and NDT inspection methods shown that are used for assurance of weld quality. The course will provide a practical and technical grounding in welding so that you will recognize and solve problems and be aware of suitable alternatives if conventional methods cannot be used.
